MANUFACTURING AND SUPPLY CHAIN

Manufacturing in the UK is a pretty big deal. We lead the world in advance manufacturing. Over 2.5 million people employed. Worth £183 billon. 51% of the UK’s total exports is goods. It’s a dynamic sector. And we love it.

Encompassing everything from food and drink production to renewable energies. Electronics to chemicals and pharmaceuticals. And so many more sectors. Businesses making goods for sale direct to consumers. Businesses supplying specific parts to other companies. Businesses with production sites.

NEVER A DULL MOMENT FOR MANUFACTURERS

You know an ever-changing marketplace gets complicated by political turmoil and unforeseen events. Covid anyone? Oh, and the war in Ukraine. Both impacted significantly on manufacturing. Witness the rise in costs for raw materials, energy and labour. And then you need to evolve and adapt. Businesses can’t stand still. How do you make your business more resilient? Reducing risk? Improve cash flow and productivity?

Our expertise is in audit, accounting and tax advisory for manufacturing and supply chain businesses. Not making things. That’s your area of expertise. But we get it. We understand how your type of business works from years of experience of working with companies like yours. From standard costing models to the importance of cash flow.

We hear about the common challenges facing manufacturing businesses from our clients and partners. Current hot topics including:

MADE IN THE UK. MADE IN THE MIDLANDS
